The owner was a genuine Italian, realized this right away when he pronounced "generador" with a "g" sound. Anyway, considering that he was the only guy open in the whole of Samara, I would say the rating would be five stars!!! Neena Hello Fred,

One of the things that amazed me about the flooding I witnessed in CR was that even though the Orosi region gets rain 340 days a year it can still be overwhelmed and destroyed but Mother Nature. The Nicoya was my favorite part of Costa Rica. I hope it dries out so you can fully enjoy it. Did you get my email about Colombia? let me know and i'll put you in touch with my friends. dmc Shreesh,

Formal procedures at the border crossings must now be a major but necessary turn-off for you two by now.. "we often hire a “guide” just to keep all the other would-be-guides at bay." heh. I can imagine some other systems that use this strategy, interesting plan :) Wow, good evocative post.
